War Hero

Spruance, for all his Carrier faults, was a Sea Eagle compared to our Penguin Vian. Vian, known for his Cossack rescue of the Altmark, was well at home clicking his heels on the Parade Ground at Whale Island, but was ill-considered as Head of the !st Aircraft Carrier Squadron aboard Formidable. Post war, on Implacable, he took the Fleet Carrier back up the Jossingfjord at great risk, so that he could have his photograph taken at the site of the Altmark rescue. See the book " Sea Eagles led by Penquins". Vian is featured.
